I don't think we want to go into Binghamton to the (awards) banquet and share (the title) in their building. It would be kind of tough considering what we've done so far, and to lose it here down the stretch.

We said before the game, it was going to take everybody to get this done. I think everybody took that to heart and came together.

I think we're both pretty easygoing and that's why we remain friends to this day.

I wasn't as athletic as a lot of the other guys, so you've got to do the little things. You've got to hustle. You've got to box out because you're not going to jump over anybody. For me and (Lillis), getting on the floor and diving for a loose ball is as good as getting a dunk.

You don't want to go into the tournament losing two in a row and have everybody else having momentum and us having none. So I think it'd be huge to go in there and win on the road and then go play the conference tournament on the road.

We were a little surprised, but we made some shots early, and I guess they thought that the only way to stay in the game was to play man-to-man.
